Sample 'Praise Target' letters from the Headteacher to parents.
Dear Mr and Mrs T
I was delighted when E came to my office to show me her animal rights project. The amount of
detailed research was impressive, and of course the presentation was extremely pleasing.
This is really encouraging. Please tell her congratulations from me.
Dear Mr and Mrs S
I was really pleased to see O in my office this morning. Mr P his Mathematics teacher, brought
him to show me some extra homework he had done on the presentation of statistical information. I
have to say it was really impressive - far better than I could have done at his age.
I know you will continue to encourage him to do well, and thank you for your fine efforts so far.
Dear Mr and Mrs C
A's circuit game is really impressive, although I'm disappointed that she didn't make it easy
enough for me.
A great piece of work, and I look forward to seeing more.
Dear Mr and Mrs G
It was a delight to see B's picture frame today. A very impressive piece of work, and I'm
looking forward to seeing more like it.
So why did she not like the idea of putting my picture in her frame ÖÖ?
Dear Mrs K
I saw N's Geography project last week and I have to say I was extremely impressed. He has
put an enormous amount of work into it, and his teacher is very pleased with the result.
Please add my congratulations to yours.
